Why So Many MAGA Men Look Like Joe Rogan The slim-fit uniform of grindset entrepreneurs and right wing podcasters can be traced back decades.

I want to give credit to my editors, who asked me to write 2,000 words on why Andrew Tate wears such tight pants. I submitted 3,700. They asked if I really needed to start with a story about the industrial revolution and I said "yes, absolutely don't cut."

I don't post much, but my husband died in his sleep last night. Only 56. Neighbours have been fantastic, but now I'm alone in the house. I can't believe this, it's not real. I love you Conrad!

A fragmentary clay tablet with broken lines of text preserved. At the bottom is a multicoloured ruler showing that it is about 7cm wide. On a blank portion is written in ink upside down β€œK. 5968” and right-side up β€œk 9334”, meaning that these are two different fragments joined together to make a fragmentary whole.

I’ve spent most of my life steeped in anxiety, and one thing that made me feel less alone was knowing how unsurprisingly not new anxiety and related experiences are.

It’s in fragments, but this is one of many clay texts from ancient Mesopotamia that describes anxiety (possibly depression)

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski has declined to name a starter for this week, opening the door to Jameis Winston possibly heading to the bench and Dorian Thompson-Robinson starting.

Far Right doing badly in Irish Election, despite massive promotion*.

Really useful indication of where the far right are, in terms of % of the first preference in the boxes opened, per constituency. Ireland is bucking the trend of European countries turning to far right.

SocDems leader Holly Cairns gives birth to baby girl Social Democrats leader Holly Cairns has given birth to a baby girl.

An absolute first, surely, for Ireland. We finally have so many women elected to represent us that one has even given birth on election day. Congratulations Holly Cairns and welcome to your baby daughter

My grandfather, a German Jew, actually did punch a Nazi, on Kristallnacht no less. They were trying to enter his business, he kept them out! My family will continue with that legacy.
